Thank you for that very excellent reply.

Is it a “clock” or a “clock signal”, in a similar sense that position encoders can be relative or “absolute” (but only within a specific range)?

Or, to paraphrase, people just don’t die like they used to.

This seems very interesting for APIs where clients have chatty and long lived connections. I’m thinking about the GitHub API, for example.

Maybe. Honda has made some industry-defining advances in areas others already occupied. I’d be paying attention.

The Skerry has only seen the Willamette and Columbia rivers so far, but Puget Sound is calling…

Most people aren’t knowledgeable about specific facts, and that’s why they are impressed by people (or things) that sound like they are.

It’s very odd to think of something extremely hot but with almost no density, and therefore very little heat transfer.

Regarding plants, my English influenced yard in the US contains no “tortured little trees”[1], but is also intentional and beautiful. Investing in beauty without ego is difficult and unusual but not e…

This is such a weird rationalization. You’d sell a kidney to be a 10x developer but making an app 1000000x smaller isn’t worth a thought? Maybe that’s why the former hasn’t happened.

I’m not sure what the authors point was with respect to ASN 16509. Are they saying parked domains don’t like being viewed by Amazon IPs or that moving to Amazon is a strong signal for being parked? Th…

One of my favorite science fiction threads is the ulta rich building personal homes in LEO, and creating a service industry as a result. I find it more believable than colonizing Mars for altruism.

> you should not assume that it's better than around 25Mbps down and 3Mbps up This is spot on for me. I live in a low-density community that got telcom early and the infrastructure has yet to …

I think we have the new top target for hackers everywhere.

Not unexpected, sadly. Plenty of training material with manipulation, delusion and such.

I have to admit, for a bit I wasn’t sure if that was a parody or the real video.

Do you use TCP for everything, and if so why not UDP?

I put my DNS service on a non-standard port. I’m the only one using it so standards be damned. Windows doesn’t allow setting a nonstandard port for DNS, but pretty-much everything else does. Do ISPs d…

Absolutely. The investment in HTTP means I can setup a website or API in a few clicks and pay nothing (or nearly so) for it. That has made it possible for me to try many, many things over the years. I…

If you are using WireGuard between endpoints your traffic if opaque, but yeah if/where it exits it becomes (depending on the encapsulated protocol) visible.

> The most important part of DoH, etc is that it allows you to make a choice. So does UDP based DNS, and TLS based DNS. It’s all the same in that regard.

If you’re going to be hacking, why not just build your own DNS?

Not really. If motivated, building a bespoke DNS for personal (or whatever) use is easy these days. The hard part is the infrastructure to make it reliable and maintainable.

Yes, but it won’t be easy. Heavy investment has gone into HTTP and we have great tooling and support for it as a result. That has a lot of benefits and I’m glad for it. But there is a cost. HTTP is a …
